One of the open problems in higher category theory is the systematic construction of the higher dimensional analogues of the Gray tensor product. In this paper we continue the work of [7] to adapt the machinery of globular operads [4] to…
A new presentation of the $n$-string braid group $B_n$ is studied. Using it, a new solution to the word problem in $B_n$ is obtained which retains most of the desirable features of the Garside-Thurston solution, and at the same time makes…
Let $V$ be a vertex operator algebra satisfying suitable conditions such that in particular its module category has a natural vertex tensor category structure, and consequently, a natural braided tensor category structure. We prove that the…
Two successive generalizations of the usual tensor products are given. One can be constructed for arbitrary binary operations, and not only for semigroups, groups or vector spaces. The second one, still more general, is constructed for…
We will give quiver presentations of the Grothendieck constructions of functors from a small category to the 2-category of $\Bbbk$-categories for a commutative ring $\Bbbk$.
We develop algebraic methods for computations with tensor data. We give 3 applications: extracting features that are invariant under the orthogonal symmetries in each of the modes, approximation of the tensor spectral norm, and…
This work addresses the problem of learning sparse representations of tensor data using structured dictionary learning. It proposes learning a mixture of separable dictionaries to better capture the structure of tensor data by generalizing…
T*-categories are introduced as a ternary generalization of C*-categories. Their linking C*-categories are constructed and the Gelfand-Naimark representation theorems of Zettl for C*-ternary rings and for W*-ternary rings, are generalized…
We develop pivotal and spherical versions of graded extension theory. We define the corresponding analogues of Brauer-Picard $2$-categorical groups and realize them as fixed points of natural $\mathbb{Z}$ and $\mathbb{Z}/2\mathbb{Z}$…
We show that, when the actions of a Mazurkiewicz trace are considered not merely as atomic (i.e., mere names) but transformations from a specified type of inputs to a specified type of outputs, we obtain a novel notion of presentation for…
Cellular categories are a generalization of cellular algebras, which include a number of important categories such as (affine)Temperley-Lieb categories, Brauer diagram categories, partition categories, the categories of invariant tensors…
We consider the derived category of permutation modules for a finite group, in positive characteristic. We stratify this tensor triangulated category using Brauer quotients. We describe the spectrum of its compact objects, by reducing the…
These are the notes from lectures I gave at the Oberwolfach Seminar "Tensor Triangular Geometry and Interactions" which was held in October 2025. The aim of these notes is twofold: We develop notions of support for triangulated categories,…
This is the fourth part in a series of papers in which we introduce and develop a natural, general tensor category theory for suitable module categories for a vertex (operator) algebra. In this paper (Part IV), we give constructions of the…
We develop a categorical framework for reasoning about abstract properties of differentiation, based on the theory of fibrations. Our work encompasses the first-order fragments of several existing categorical structures for differentiation,…
The Temperley-Lieb and Brauer algebras and their cyclotomic analogues, as well as the partition algebra, are all examples of twisted semigroup algebras. We prove a general theorem about the cellularity of twisted semigroup algebras of…
We present a new solution to the classification problem for the category of representations of a quiver of type $\widetilde{A}_{3}$. Our approach uses linear algebra techniques which lead us to a reduction that allows to use induction. As…
We develop the theory of categories of measurable fields of Hilbert spaces and bounded fields of bounded operators. We examine classes of functors and natural transformations with good measure theoretic properties, providing in the end a…
These are lecture notes for a course on the theory of Clifford algebras, with special emphasis on their wide range of applications in mathematics and physics. Clifford algebra is introduced both through a conventional tensor algebra…
We show that the category of principal ordered face structures is equivalent to the category of multitopes. We show that the category of principal ordered face structures is equivalent to the category of multitopes. On the way we introduce…
